Question 64-bit?

I think it is my computer, as the one I use at work doesn't have the same problem.

I am running Windows Vista premium edition. This is no virus on my PC and since I have installed the latest window updates, it happens less frequently. I have deleted temp files and my cookies history under internet options. I have installed the latest McAfee updates yesterday.
Could it be I need an upgraded version of IE? Don't know what my present version is but I can look at it when I get home.

Has anyone else been experiencing this problem?

Any solutions will be appreciated.
Problem I ran into with Vista Home Premium was one of the Adobe plug-ins. (I think it was flash player) Adobe didn't support the 64-bit operating system. their solution was to run IE in 32-bit mode. Didn't explain how to accomplish that, tho'. After much messing around, uninstalling plug-ins, re-installing, etc., etc. now, when I check task manager, it shows 'Iexplore.exe *32' is running. Have no idea how? still happens occasionally but much more stable now.
